Well finally the jinx is broken…and I am off…to other wonderful shores to soak in the sights, smells, colours, people, places, food and what not!
I am headed to a place, where they claim food is a national pastime and one that has more than 1000 malls…Singapore…
Just FYI: The name Singapura is derived from the Malay words singa (lion) and pura (city), which in turn is from the Sanskrit words simha and pura. According to the Malay Annals, this name was given by a 14th century Sumatran Malay prince named Sang Nila Utama, who, on alighting the island after a thunderstorm, renamed it Singapura after spotting an auspicious beast identified as a lion.
Anyhow I don’t have too much time since I am more worried about the nitty gritties of getting into an unknown land and making do with strangers for company…for now this is all…

My mind wanders....the tears prick my hot cheeks...the paper crumbles....the light wanes....I am all alone....and I ramble on....
